Luxury quartz watches showcasing each company's technological and design capabilities

　When it comes to the powertrain of luxury watches, mechanical movements are the first to come to mind. With a long history, mechanical watches, which keep time using the unwinding power of a mainspring, are items brimming with romance. However, quartz watches, like mechanical watches, are also the crystallization of human ingenuity. Furthermore, quartz watches operate with high precision and operate accurately without the need for periodic winding of the mainspring, making them a more desirable choice when considering wearing them in business situations.

　This time, we would like to introduce some luxurious quartz watches suitable for men over 40. We hope you will take a look at these masterpieces that allow you to enjoy the technology and design of each company.

Omega Constellation Ref. 131.10.36.60.01.001

Omega tends to get attention for its sports watches such as the Speedmaster and Seamaster, but for men over 40, we would also like to draw your attention to the elegant Constellation. This time, we will be introducing a model that inherits the design of the Constellation Manhattan, which was released in 1982.

Citizen Eco-Drive One, Ref. AQ5022-02E

　Eco-Drive is a photovoltaic power generation function that converts sunlight or indoor lighting into electricity to run the watch, eliminating the need for periodic battery replacement. The Eco-Drive One collection is equipped with an ultra-thin movement that is just 1mm thick and incorporates this function. The case itself is also kept to 4.5mm thick, and combined with a black crocodile leather strap, it is a dress watch suitable for formal occasions.

　The case is made of stainless steel and is treated with Duratect, a proprietary surface hardening technology, to enhance scratch resistance while being finished in a subdued amber yellow, a yellow gold color.

　Combining a small-seconds layout with a slim case and crocodile leather strap, this model is attractive for its elegance, reminiscent of dress watches of the past, while incorporating the latest technology.
